Another instance of a low-priority bug that no one has spent time figuring out how to patch. In my opinion, given the current state of both autoscan and autoupdate, a developer should use them for guidance, but not trust them as final output. In other words, a minimal patch for 2.66 (if we don't go the route of the more complicated patch of actually fixing the output to match good practice) would be to at least be more prominent in the manual about the need to inspect the output of these tools for questionable content. -- Eric Blake eblake@xxxxxxxxxx +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
